Why stay here ...
Set in a quiet, simple and spacious location, Stover Club Site lies next to a beautiful country park on the edge of Dartmoor. If you crave a tranquil break and a wealth of lovely scenic walks, this is the ideal caravan site for your holiday. The Stover Park itself offers a variety of walks - you can choose secure expeditions guided by the Park staff or if you fancy something more challenging the wilder terrains of Dartmoor nearby are waiting to be discovered.
Visitors to Stover Club Site can enjoy the other aspects of Dartmoor by following the nature trail through a lovely valley to see Becky Falls. You can also opt for a leisurely drive to Canonteign for another country park well worth visiting as well as a host of delightful waterfalls. There is also a memorable Heritage Trail near the caravan park called the Templer Way; it runs from Haytor right through to the sea at Shaldon.
Less than a mile away is Trago Mills Family shopping and Leisure Park which includes super karts, trawler boats, steam and model railways plus an interactive animal enclosure so there is something for everyone nearby.
Digital TV signal booster in operation (no lead required).
Please note: this site does not have a toilet block.

A nice wee site
I stayed here twice this October, for 2 nights each. The first time I came, I was not familiar with the checking-in process, but it was less of a bother the second time (having to phone when I'm looking at the office). As others have stated, this site is large enough to warrant full facilities, but this was not a problem for me. The site is well kept and clean. The one major flaw was the lack of hand sanitisers at the recycling/bin/septic tank facilities. I know it is my responsibility to provide my own, but most places, especially in the retail sector, provide them. The written notes I was given said there were some on site, but apart from outside the main office, I couldn't see any.
I also find it useful to have a bus stop just outside the main entrance. I love going to Newton Abbot for the day, and as I have a motorhome, it is easier to use public transport.
Finally, it is located conveniently next to Stover Country Park, where I enjoyed a daily walk.
I look forward to my next visit to Stover.
Immaculate site
We use this Stover site at least once a year and have just returned from a short stay I have to congratulate the wardens on the immaculate condition of the site all hardstandings were well kept and weed free the waste bin area's are clean with bins clearly marked for recycling the condition of the whole site is a credit to the wardens.
There are no toilet facilities at this site and I hope there never will be, its a relaxing site to stay on with easy access to coast and moors.
Well done wardens its very much appreciated.

Handy location
Stover site is really easy to find, just off A38. It is located on the edge of a country park with lots of footpaths and a lake. We found a pitch near the centre of the site which was lovely and sunny, but others could be quite shady. There is a co-op within a mile, and we cycled, although the road was quite busy. We found a national cycle route which is accessed through the country park (you just have to wheel the bikes until you reach the tarmac path) and it is easy to access Newton Abbot or Bovey Tracey. The route follows an old canal so is fairly level when you get to it, although it is a good downhill to get to it (and therefore an uphill on the way back). It was well kept and clean, but no toilet block, which we knew beforehand and weren’t looking for anyway. The only thing we found was that the A38 could always be heard in the background - probably not a problem if you live in a town, but we’re not used to it so found it quite noisy. The country park is quite peaceful and it is worth following the signs to the Canadian war memorial (especially as the sun is going down).
Full Marks to the wardens during this difficult time
Stover is one of the cleanest and tidiest CAMC sites we have ever stayed on. The wardens gave clearly worked very hard to achieve the high standards they gave achieved. A very big thankyou:
Noise through the night, toilets.
Stayed here for two nights
Pros -
Great location off A38.
Great dog walk.
Fantastic park next door.
Cons -
No toilets for such a large site (21 century ?). 5 van site understood this site can't understand.
If your pitch is towards the entrance of the site there's quite a bit of road noise all night. Suppose this is the down side to having such a convenient location of an A road.
